They wont do it! I tried!
In theory though it would be 10,000 pounds.
Also thought you may want to know it's pennies and pounds and no ' needed.

I believe that there are 100 English pennies in an English Pound. One million pennies divided by 100 results in 10,000 pounds.

You must be crazy, how would you get a million pennies into the bank? A penny weighs about a gramme, so a million would weigh about a ton, or about a quarter of a large elephant, four motorbikes; two thousand large tubs of double cream, ten oversized sopranos, or seventeen oil-radiators.
I think you should go on to another project.

Are those decimal pennies or pre-decimal pennies? If they are pre-decimal you would probably be better off selling to a coin dealer - and if you do have a million pennies, the chances are that it might be worth asking a coin dealer to look through them first. Otherwise, the other answers a pretty close!

I don't think any bank would change that amount of pennies up for you...
Certainly in shops they do not have to take more than £7 in coppers in a transaction.

100 new pence in £1
Hence 1,000,000/100 = £10,000
But remember that there used to be 240 pennies in a £
So it could be 1,000,000/240 = £4166.66
And that's not the end of it, my American wife has just pointed out that 1 penny = 1cent. You will have to do the calculation based on current exchange rates.
All this does show how much questions should be qualified.

None. Because the bank wouldn't do it! They don't need so many pennies

here i am assuming you mean new british pence as opposed to old british pennies or us cents
1m pence =1,000,000 p =(10^6) p
but £1 = 100 p = (10^2) p
therefore, (1m) p = ((10^6)/(10^2)) £ =(10^4) £
= £10,000

The Bank could refuse such large quantities over the counter but if they would you would have a cool £10,000 not to be sniffed at.

I think a UK bank would take them all because they can weigh them, instead of counting.
In 'ordinary transactions' a shopkeepr, say, is not obliged to accept more than 20 of these coins.
